Jesse Cook - Turning

This is a video I made myself. I have had a long love affair with photography, and making little movies and videos. It's liberating to step outside my own art form (music) and dabble in another medium, one where I am not so judgemental.

At the end of my 2015 Canadian Tour, I asked Luca Tarantini to shoot some footage of the band for a video of my new song "Shake". While he shot some beautiful performances by Chris, Dennis, and Nic between soundcheck and shows, there was nothing of Chendy and me, and we didn't have enough material for a full video.

When I got back to Toronto, and found myself with a couple of weeks off, I decided to finish the video myself. Armed with a GH4 camera, and Final Cut Pro on my laptop, I roamed the streets looking for anything compelling to shoot. Here is the result. I hope you like it!

Special thanks to Nancy, for filming me walking in Toronto. There are some things you just can't do yourself.
